Apology from man in Saudi Arabia is received with scepticism by football players who have experienced abuse
An internet troll who subjected Bukayo Saka to racist abuse after the England football player missed the decisive penalty in the Euro 2020 final shootout defeat to Italy has apologised after being tracked down on social media by journalists.
The man in his early 20s from Saudi Arabia posted racist emojis on 20-year-old Saka’s Instagram account in the moments after the loss and was approached by the team at BBC Radio 4’s documentary programme File on 4.
